Lyrics
I'm in the dark
Feeling lost or uncertain, lacking clarity
I'm in the haze
Confused or disoriented
I say goodbye, as we reach our final days
Saying farewell as something comes to an end
I'm in the morgue
Metaphorically feeling emotionally dead or detached
Don't you want some more?
Desire for more or additional things
You told me I'm the one that everyone adores
Being told one is admired or loved by everyone
I'm just the scary scary boogie man you see
Being perceived as a scary figure, possibly misunderstood
I'm just the scary scary woman on TV
Being portrayed as frightening on television
I'm just the scary scary monster I'm a
Identifying as a frightening monster
Scary scary monster I'm the
Reiterating the identity as a scary monster
Scary scary person on the screen!
Being the scary character depicted on screen
Bring me down, and then let me go
Request to be brought down emotionally before being released
I can handle it on my own
Claiming independence in handling situations
Bring me up, and you'll let me see
Wanting elevation to understand the reason behind fear
Why are you so terryfied of me?
Questioning why others are afraid of the persona
I know that I'm not that smart
Acknowledging personal limitations intellectually
I know I don't got no heart
Recognizing a lack of emotional depth or empathy
Why can't you just leave me be?
Desiring to be left alone by others
Why are you so terryfied of me?
Reiterating confusion about others' fear of the persona
I'm in your heart
Being a part of someone's emotions or feelings
I'm in your brain
Influencing someone's thoughts or perceptions
And I apologize for being so insane
Apologizing for being perceived as mentally unstable
I'm in your fears
Residing within someone's fears
I'm what they say
Being the subject of rumors or discussions
I'm in that movie back in 2017!
Referencing a movie where the persona is depicted (2017's 'Split')
Split! What?
Referencing a specific scene or moment in the movie 'Split'
I'm just a scary scary monster on the screen!
Reiterating the scary persona on screen
I'm just so terryble, so bad at being me!
Expressing inadequacy or failure at being oneself
And no I know I can't get better
Acknowledging a lack of improvement
I know I can't get better
Reaffirming a belief in personal inability to get better
And everything is worse because of me!
Believing everything worsens due to one's presence
Trust me, I know. No need to tell me twice
Admitting awareness of personal shortcomings without needing reminders
Bring me down, and then let me go
Seeking emotional release after being brought down
I can handle it on my own
Self-reliance in handling personal difficulties
Bring me up, and you'll let me see
Desiring elevation to understand others' fear
Why are you so terryfied of me?
Questioning others' fear of the persona again
I know that I'm not that smart
Admitting personal intellectual shortcomings again
I know I don't got no heart
Acknowledging a lack of emotional depth or empathy again
Why can't you just leave me be?
Reiterating a desire to be left alone
Why are you so terryfied of me?
Confusion about others' fear of the persona reiterated
Why are you so terrified?
Asking why others are so afraid
Why are you so terrified?
Repeating the question about others' fear
Why are you so terrified of me?
Continuing to question why others are afraid
Why are you so terrified?
Reiterating the query about others' fear
Why are you so terrified?
Continuing to ask why others are afraid
You hate me cause you're just so freaking
Suggesting that hatred stems from others' intense fear
Terrified of me!
Stating that others hate the persona due to intense fear
